Album Review
The self-appointed CEO of intrepid indie grrrl rock sparks one more with Up Up Up Up Up Up, an ebullient addition to an already prolific and deeply admirable career. The playful synthetics and occasional stabs at atypical Ani DiFranco stylings belie the general humorlessness of her lyrics: "'Tis of Thee" is as annoyed with American TV-news culture as one can get (as might be expected of street-cynical Ani). "Come Away" is just plain corny, wistfully scrapbooking a lover away with tinkly punches on an electric piano. "Virtue" is wackier, with shades of old songs by young Edie Brickell, and "Jukebox" sounds relentlessly synthesized, funky with baffling lyrics and weird abrupt high notes like the ones you either adore or abhor from contempo sister Alanis Morissette. Some fans may continue to dream of an album wherein Ani shows off some real chops, as she'll do for lucky people in concert: she's actually a wonderful 12-string guitarist, but you can't really get a feel for that here.
Recent Customer Reviews
I like this album.
by Walter.KessingerIt's not one of my top 5 Ani's, but it's not a throw-away either. Ten years later, Tis of Thee still leaves me feeling like I've been punched in the gut. I can't imagine why that one was left off Canon.
One to have early, not much to remember.
by ReadIcculusWhen I first stumbled upon Ani Difranco back in 1999, this album was hot off the presses, and I had just been hooked by Little Plastic Castle (still my favorite Ani album). I proceeded then to buy just about everything she had released until that point, and this album was second in line. I remember being fascinated by how different an album could be from it's immediate precursor, something that I marveled even more at when To The Teeth was released just a few moths later. However impressed I was by this album at the time, only Virtue, Jukebox and the first few minutes of Hat Shaped Hat do I ever really listen to anymore. For the most part, the album is an overly low-key snoozefest that doesn't do much to showcase Ani's truly remarkable talent. For the burgeoning or harcore fan only; not for the casual Ani listener.
I Love This Album...Very Cool Ani...Verry Cool.
by Grinchy62My second album into Ani Difranco's World after "Living In Clips"
Every song I hear, has my wanting more!
Great Live show too...I saw her in Boston at the Orpheum Theatre.
GO ANI. Keep Going UP UP UP......
